Gerasimov Triples

Kirill Gerasimov moved all in from early position with Vadim Trincher flat-calling on the button and the small blind also making the call.

The flop came {10-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{9-Spades} and the small blind checked to Trincher who bet out 8,500. The small blind made the call.

The turn was the {7-Spades} and again the small blind checked and Trincher fired another bullet worth 8,500. The small blind called.

The river was the {3-Spades} and Trincher moved all in. Once again the small blind called, and with his tournament life on the line he was forced to muck when Trincher showed {K-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} for just second pair.

For the main pot, Gerasimov showed {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a straight to triple up to over 15,000 chips.
